"China and Africa: A New Paradigm of Global Business has a good collection of chapters dealing with important issues related to China's footprint in Africa. Three useful aspects of China's impact are pinpointed: the state policy, the business investment and the associated ideology. Serious readers will be inspired to tackle the following critical questions: how true is China's contribution to Africa's recent industrial development?; how real is the so-called "Beijing model" as practiced in Africa?; and how far can China pursue its global strategy in Africa under the slogans of peaceful rise and harmonious world?" (Hsin-Hunag Michael Hsiao, Research Fellow, Institute of Sociology, Academia Sinica, Taiwan)
